Review Summary

Balthazar Café is described as a very nice little spot with a welcoming staff, a wide menu, and soups that are delicious. The coffee scene is praised for great drinks, including a cappuccino option with only foam, and the double espresso is singled out as excellent. Pastries receive mixed notes, with one almond croissant not meeting expectations due to almond essence. Visitors from Victoriaville, Montréal and beyond mention great coffee, great food, great people, and some say it is a wonderful find in mining country while passing through Val d’Or. Overall, the experience is described as consistently excellent, with the best iced coffee many have had and a vibe that is friendly, accommodating and inviting.View restaurant profile

Comfort Food Sandwiches Poutine Breakfast Pastries

Review Summary

Overall, reviews of Resto du coin note that the food quality has dropped a little recently but remains good and cheap, with Slush available year round. The place is often busy, attracting many patrons described as older gents. Poutine is praised as tasty and well balanced, though not exceptional, with good potatoes, cheese and sauce. The hot dog is noted as very good. Pepper shakers were all taken on other tables, so pepper was not always available. For those passing through for work, a good poutine with well balanced components meets expectations. Choosing this spot over fast food chains is seen as more satisfying. Staff are consistently friendly and smiling, contributing to good service. Prices are very affordable and the food is described as excellent, though not haute cuisine; a casual snack place. Visits are described as a pleasure to make.View restaurant profile
